Episode 191- Michael Jr.
We often say that pain is the common denominator of life. But while that is true, there is another common denominator: laughter.
Even in the middle of the darkest seasons, we all find ourselves laughing at times. It’s a part of the human experience, just like pain. Michael Jr. knows this firsthand.
As a comedian, his job is to make people laugh. But Michael’s comedy is far from an escape that tries to pretend that pain doesn’t exist.
Through his own painful experiences and the stories of others that he’s witnessed, Michael has learned how laughter can reach us in our pain and bring newfound hope.
Michael sits down with Davey to share some of his story and the wisdom he’s gained along the journey.
“In life there is a setup and a punchline. A setup is about what you receive, but your punchline is about what you are called to deliver. A lot of people know their setup, but they don’t understand their punchline.”
